Transcript – Full

Senator John Kennedy, the Democratic nominee for the presidency. I'm asking the people of Minnesota for their help on Tuesday, November 8th. This is an important election for the United States, the cause of freedom, and for Minnesota. Minnesota needs the benefit of progressive federal policy, policies that will protect agriculture, which has suffered a sharp decline in Minnesota in the last eight years under Mr. Benson's program. And Mr. Nixon's program continues the same policy of tying the support price to the market price instead of to parity. We need jobs in the northern part of Minnesota. We need education for our children. We need medical care for our older citizens under Social Security. We need a strong and progressive and new administration, the kind of administration that Hubert Humphrey and I stand for. We ask your help on Tuesday, November 8th.
